Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Chicago-based Jazz Trumpeter, Author & Artist Joe Clark. We explore his bold new 2025 project Deep Cuts — a collaboration with Radiant Black writers Kyle Higgins and Joe Clark, joined by an all-star lineup of bestselling artists.

The Deep Cuts miniseries will feature six double-length issues from Image Comics, paired with original music, creating a unique multimedia experience. Joe Clark’s music is described by AllAboutJazz as “an emphatic new voice that should be heard”, blending traditions into a fresh and innovative sound.

We discuss the inspiration behind this ambitious project, the creative spark fueled by the pandemic, and Joe’s journey through the vibrant Chicago music scene. It’s an inspiring story at the intersection of jazz, comics, and storytelling. Dig this interview.
